Any pressure vessel can explode, rupture, or discharge its contents if sufficiently over pressurized causing death, personal injury, property damage, and/or damage to the environment, All necessary measures must be taken to ensure over pressurization does not occur. AX WARNING. Operation of any pumping system with a blocked suction and discharge must be avoided in all cases. Operation, even fora brief period under these conditions, can cause supetheating of enclosed pumpage and result ina violent explosion, All necessary measures must be taken by the end user to ensure this condition is avoided AX WARNING. ‘The pump may handle hazardous and/or toxic fluids. Care must be taken to identify the contents ofthe pump and eliminate the possibility of exposure, particularly if hazardous and/or toxic. Potential hazards include, but are not limited to, high temperature, flammable, acidic, caustic, explosive, and other risks. AN WARNING Pumping equipment Instruction, Operation, and Maintenance manuals clearly identify accepted methods for disassembling pumping units. These methods must be adhered to. Specifically, applying heat to impellers and/or impeller retaining devices to aid in their removal is strictly forbidden. Trapped liquid can rapidly expand and result in a violent explosion and injury.

LOCATION. Pumping unit should be placed as close as practical to the source of supply. Head room and floor space allotted to the pump should be sufficient for inspection and maintenance. I—B. FOUNDATION. The foundation should be substan- tial in order to absorb any vibration and to form a permanent rigid support for the pump. I—C. MOUNTING PUMP. The “close-cupld” pump may be ‘mounted in any horizontal or vertical posi- tion except with pump above motor. Its con- struction with the pump installed on the extended motor shaft eliminates coupling and the alignment procedures normally involved. Group “S” and “M” pumps have two hold down bolt holes in the motor adapter foot (108). Group “L” pumps have two hold down bolt holes in the pump foot. All pumps have four hold down bolt holes in the motor feet. Depending upon the motor frame, the adapter or pump foot may be higher or lower than the motor feet. Shim as required, then bolt all feet securely to foundation. Be careful not to twist or distort feet. D. PIPING—GENERAL. 1. All piping must be supported indepen- dently of the pump. The piping should always “line-up” naturally with the pump flanges. NEVER DRAW THE PIPING INTO PLACE BY USE OF FORCE AT THE FLANGED SUCTION AND DISCHARGE CONNECTIONS OF THE PUMP! 2. The piping, both suction and discharge, should be as short and direct as pos- sible. Avoid all unnecessary elbows, bends and fittings, as they increase the friction losses in the piping. The size of pipe and fittings should be carefully selected and of sufficient size to keep the friction losses as low as practical. 3. Piping must not be connected to the pump until the pump unit hold down bolts have been tightened. 4. When handling liquids at elevated tem- peratures, arrangements must be made for expansien loops or expan- sion joints so that the linear expan- sion of the pipe will not cause the pumping unit to be drawn out of alignment. Fig. 1vie SUBMERGENCE IW FEET (IN Fig. 2 IE. PIPING—SUCTION. 1. Properly installed suction piping is of ‘extreme importance for trouble-free centrifugal pump operation. (a) The suction pipe should be as large or larger than the pump suction. (b) Increasers, if used, should be eccen- tric and preferably at or near the pump suction flange. (c) A centrifugal pump should never be throttled for capacity adjustment on the suction side. 2. Installation with Pump Above Source of Supply—Suction Lift: (a) Keep suction pipe free from air pockets. 1, Piping should slope upwards from source of supply. 2. No portion of piping should ex- tend above the pump suction nozzle, (b) All joints must be air tight. (c) The suction pipe should always be submerged into the source of supply as shown in Fig. 2. (d) A foot valve should only be used if necessary for priming, or, if the pump is to be used on intermittent service and is required to hold its prime. (e) Suction strainers when used should have a net free area of at least three times the suction pipe area. 3. Installations with Pump Below Source of Supply—Suction Head or Flooded Suction: (a) A gate valve should be installed in the suction line to permit closing the line for pump inspection and maintenance. (b) The size of the entrance from the source of supply or minimum sub- mergence over the entrance should be calculated from the data as shown in Fig. 2 for applicable con- dition to prevent air from being drawn into the pump.I-F. PIPING—DISCHARGE. 1. A gate valve and a check valve should be insialled in the discharge line. The check valve should be located between the gate valve and pump to permit inspection of the check valve. The gate valve is required for priming, regulation of flow ca- pacity and for inspection and.main- tenance of the pump. 2. Increasers, if used in discharge line, should be placed between the check valve and the pump. I—G. CONNECTION OF PIPING. Connect suetion and discharge pip- ing. Rotate the pump shaft by hand several complete revolutions to be sure that there is no binding and that all parts are free. If the connection of the piping causes unit to rub, correct piping to relieve strain on the pump. I-H. CHECK ROTATION. ‘These pumps are built in right hand construction, i.e., clockwise rot: when viewed from driver end. The direction of rotation is marked on the pump casing. Make sure that driver rotates in the same direction. SECTION II- PREPARATION FOR OPERATION II—A. BEARINGS. The bearings are located in and are part of the motor. Refer to separate motor instructions. There are no bearings in the pump. IIB. STUFFING BOX. ‘These pumps are furnished with packed stuffing box. In the box of fittings accompanying the pump will be found the stuffing box packing. When installing the packing, twist the rings sideways just enough to get them around the shaft. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PULL RINGS STRAIGHT OUT TO GET THEM OVER SHAFT (Fig. 3) CORRECT Ue. STUFFING 80x PACKING a WRONG reste Slide the Lantern ring (105) out and away from the stuffing box. (See Sectional Assembiy, Section VI—D). Insert three rings of packing, stag- gering the joints. The Lantern ring should then be inserted in the stuff- ing box. When it is in its proper position, it will be directly opposite the sealing inlet connection. After the Lantern ring is in place, insert ‘two more rings of packing, stagger- ing the joints. One extra ring is fur- nished in each set of packing. The extra ring may be added as required. Place one gland half in lower position in stuffing box. Slice cupped washers over studs and on the bosses of the gland to hold gland halves together. Place the two gland nuts on the studs and draw up evenly but not tight.II—C. CONNECTION OF SEALING LIQUID OR GREASE LUBRICATOR If the stuffing box is above atmos- pherie pressure, and the pumpage is clean, normal gland leakage of 40-60 drops per ‘minute is usually sufficient to lubricate and cool the packing, and sealing liquid is not required. Sealing liquid or grease lubricator is re- quired: (a) When abrasive particles in the pump- age could score the shaft. (b) Stuffing box below atmospheric pres- sure (pump running with suction lift or suction source under vacuum). Under these conditions, the packing will not be cooled and lubricated, and air will be drawn into the pump. Sealing liquid may be supplied by reci lating pumpage to the Lantern ring through a line from the easing to %4" pipe tap con- nection ( %” on Group “L”) in the stuffing box. The other connection is plugged. If the liquid is abrasive, an outside source of clean compatible liquid must be used at a pressure 20 to 40 psi above suction pressure. ‘A grease lubricator is supplied when the use of recirculating pumpage or of outside sealing liquid is not desired. The grease should be compatible with, and insoluble in, the pumpage. II—D. CONNECTION OF PIPING TO QUENCHNG GLAND A quench type gland can be supplied on special order with tapped holes in the top and lower gland halves. Quenching is recom- mended on applications where the liquid pumped is at a temperature of 180° F. or higher, and also when the pump is handling volatile or toxic liquids in order to smother the gland leakage, which then can be piped away. ‘The quenching liquid must be from an outside source and should be piped with flexible pipe into the opening in the upper gland half and out the opening in the lower gland half, A shut-off valve should be in- stalled in the quenching line. TI—E, MECHANICAL SEALS. Mechanical seals of various types and makes may be supplied on special order. If supplied they were properly installed and adjusted at the factory. No further adjust- ment is required. Connect circulating line between stuffing box and pump casing if not already connected. This line assures suffi- cient pumpage to seal for cooling and lubri cation. Check separate seal instruction sheet to determine type of seal installed and any i for the specific seal supplied. II—F. CONNECTION OF DRAIN PIPING. Drain piping can be connected to the tapped openings in the adapter, to carry away stuffing box leakage. Openings are 14” pipe tap on Group “S”, 4” on Groaps “M” and “L”,SECTION II—STARTING PUMP II—A. PRIMING. The pump must always be fully primed—all air removed and the suction pipe full of liquid—before pump is started, If the pump is run dry, the rotating the pump may gall and seize to the stationary parts as they depend on the liquid being pumped for lubric: II-B. ADJUSTMENT OF STUFFING BOX GLAND. With pump running at rated speed, stuffing box gland can be adjusted. Draw gland nuts up evenly and only one-sixth of a tum at a time, allowing sufficient time between adjustments for the packing to ad- just itself and the effect on the leakage to be observed. If any sign of heating is evi dent, shut down the pump and allow the box to cool. Several starts may be neces- sary before the box runs cool. Do not back off the gland nuts on a hot box as this will usually result in liquid leaking between the outer edge of the packing and the stuffing box bore. Remember that ir takes newly- installed packing some time to “run in”” and. that during this period, frequent attention and careful adjustments are necessary. See Section IV—A (page 7) for final adjust- ments of gland. III—C. INSTALLATION CHECK— FINAL. Final check of installation can only be accomplished after unit has been run under actual operating conditions for a sufficient length of time to bring the unit up to stabilize operating temperature. After warm-up period has elapsed, stop the unit and check the expansion of pump and motor. This may be done by loosening motor adapter hold down bolts to determine if motor has expanded more than adapter. Shims under adapter may need to be added or removes Strains imposed by expansion of pip- ing should also be checked SECTION IV—OPERATION IV—A. STUFFING BOX. 1, Stuffing Box with Packing Rings— Jess Quenching Gland and Grease Lubricator. Periodically inspect stuffing box to see that there is sufficient leakage to lubricate the packing and mai a cool box. Never draw up packing so that the stuffing box heats, as this will cause damage to both packing and shaft. Always draw up gland nuts evenly and only when pump is running. After pump has been in operation for some time and the packing has been completely run in, at least 40 to 60 drops per minute of the liquid should be allowed to trickle from the stuffing box at all times for cooling and lubricating the packing and shaft sleeve. 2. Stuffing Box with Packing Rings— with Quenching Glands. ‘The same precautions as described above apply. However, the amount of leakage through the packing can-not be so readily ascertained, due to the quenching liquid. In most cases, the valve on the quenching liquid supply line can be shut off for a short period and the amount of leakage determined as in IV—A. In no instance should the gland be drawn up tight. 3. Stuffing Box with Packing Rings— with Grease Lubricator. Operation is the same as directed in IV—A 1, with the addition that the handle on the lubricator should be given a tum or two about every 100 hours of operation. OPERATING AT REDUCED CAPACITIES. Do not operate a centrifugal pump at greatly reduced capacities or with dis- charge gate valve closed, because the energy required to drive the pump is converted into heat. If this condition exists over a long period, the temperature of the liquid in the pump may increase until the boiling point is reached. If this occurs, the rotating parts are exposed to vapor with no lubric- tion and they may score or even seize to thé stationary parts; and furthermore, if run- ning clearances have enlarged duc to wear, re may not take place. Continued oper~ ation under these conditions may create an explosive hazard due to the confined vapor under high pressure and temperature. To guard against possible damage, ae devices are available, such as 1. Liquid temperature relay or thermo- stat which will shut-off the unit if the liquid temperature in the pump exceeds a pre- determined maximum. This device guards ible damage due to running the pump against a closed valve. 2. Constant open by-pass orifice between the pump discharge and any check or regu- lating valve in the discharge line. The liquid through the orifice is returned to the suction source. The amount of liquid by-passed is 1a function of input horsepower and the al- lowable temperature rise. This device also is insurance against damage due to running the pump against a closed discharge valve or very low flow conditions. 3. Bearing temperature relay which will shut the unit down if the bearing tempera- ture exceeds a predetermined maximum. 4. Low suction pressure control which will shut off the unit should the suction pressure drop below a pre-established minimum. ‘A centrifugal pump should never be throttled for capacity adjustment on the suction side. IV—C. OPERATING AT REDUCED HEAD. On motor driven pumps, when dis- charge head or pressure is allowed to drop considerably below the rated point for any length of time, the motor should be watched. for heating because the pump capacity in- creases rapidly with reduced head, as does horsepower consumption. If this condition is likely to persist, arrangements should be made either to manually or automatically throttle the discharge valve to build up head toa safe point. IV—D. OPERATING WITH SURGE CONDITIONS IN LINE. If pump is installed with a quick closing valve in discharge line that closes when pump is running, dangerous pressure surges may be built up that can cause dam- age to the pump or line. In services of this kind, some cushioning arrangement must be provided to protect the pumping equip- ment. IV—E. OPERATING UNDER FREEZING CONDITIONS. When exposed to freezing condi- tions and pump is standing idle, liquid in- side the pump should be drained by remov- ing drain plug in bottom of casing (100) and opening pipe plug at top.SECTION V—TROUBLE CHECK LIST V—A.

Refer to Section VI—D (page 12). These rings allow a small clearance to be maintained between the rotating impeller and the stationary casing wearing rings. For proper hydraulic performance these clearances should be maintained as indicated below Ring should be replaced when clearances have worn to those listed under replacement clearance.Chart shows original clearances and sug- gested replacement clearances as follows: Bing Bore [_Diasstrical Clearance, Tas Dias, In ‘Original Usder 2” ate, | 0.010-0.014 | 0.020-0.024 2" eo 2%" dia. | 0.011-0.015 | 0,021-0.025 2H" to 34" dia. 0.014-0.018 | 0.024-0.028 ‘3H to 44" die.| 0.016-0.020 | 0.026-0.030 Over 4h" dia, 022 | 0, 028-0..052 To check ring clearances or for replace ment proceed as follows: 1, Shut off all piping and disconnect suction piping. 2. Drain liquid from pump. 3. Unscrew nuts from studs (356) and re- move cover (182) from casing. If pump has only a suction wearing ring, as indicated from Section VI—D, (page 12) then check outside diameter of impeller hub and inside diameter of casing wearing ring in casing cover. S If pump is designed with two wearing rings: 4. Remove impeller nut (304) and washer (199). 5. By use of a suitable puller similar to that shown in Fig. 4 pull impeller from shaft. (Puller must push against shaft as shown. Do not use a type that pulls from casing). All im- pellers arc provided with two tapped. holes to facilitate use of a puller. 6. Check diameters of both hubs and rings. If clearances are excessive, the rings should be replaced. See recom- mended clearance chart above. 7. Remove rings from cover and casing. 8.

SPARE PARTS. To insure against possible long and costly “down-time” periods, especi- ally on critical services it is advis able to have spare parts on hand. 1, One set of group parts should be main- tained for every one to three pumps Section IIT 15 of that particular group size in oper- ation. Pumps of the same group size have all parts interchangeable except casing, suction cover, im- peller and wearing rings—see inter- changeability chart Section VI—D. The following is a list of recom- mended group parts: (a) Stuffing box packing (106)—1 set required. (b) Stuffing box gland complete (107) —one required. (c) Impeller Key (178) —one required (d) Impeller nut (304)—one required. (e) Impeller washer (199)—one re- quired. (f) Shaft steve (126)—one required 2. For each size pump it is suggested that one set of wearing rings be main- tained. 3. The shaft is a part of the motor. VI—I. INSTRUCTIONS FOR ORDERING REPAIR PARTS.
